Am 19. Juni erscheint das selbstbetitelte neue Album von LAMB OF GOD, vorher haut der Richmond-Krawalltrupp mit "Routes" aber noch mal eine ordentliche Dampframme raus, bei der sich auch TESTAMENT-Frontmann Chuck Billy die Ehre gibt. Frontmann Randy Blythe zum Song, der inhaltlich dessen Zeit bei der Standing Rock Sioux Reservation in North Dakota während der No DAPL-Bewegung behandelt:
“I went to Standing Rock because I had heard reports of violence committed on the peaceful protestors there by both state law enforcement and private security contractors, and this violence was not reported in mainstream media for the most part. I went to bring supplies and support these people, who were trying to protect their water, and thereby protect everyone, as everything in the natural world is protected.
I was there a week, made some great friends, and learned a lot. It was a very profound experience in my life, and I knew one day I would write a song about it.”
